Raúl Castillo is headed to an auction…
The 46-year-old Mexican American actor will star as the lead in William Atticus Parker’s third film, The Auction.
The suspense science-fiction tale is loosely inspired by Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None.
The film is set at the Aztec Corp., a company that auctions off ancient antiquities and semi-distinct wild exotic animals.
Castillo will portray the newest sales representative, David Valdez, with Ben Vereen appearing as his father and K. Todd Freeman as the head of the corporation.
The previously announced cast also includes Audra McDonald, Mary-Louise Parker and Richard Kind. Details about their specific roles aren’t being released yet.
Castillo will next be seen in Paramount’s upcoming Smile 2 and alongside Mark Ruffalo in HBO’s untitled Brad Ingelsby series.
He’s known for movies including Steven Soderbergh’s Cold Wallet, Amazon’s Cassandro opposite Gael Garia Bernal, Army of the Dead, Cha Cha Real Smooth and A24’s The Inspection, as well as TV series including HBO’s Looking, Starz’s Vida and Netflix’s Atypical.
Agatha Christie’s book And Then There Were None is one of the world’s best-selling mystery novels, and it has been adapted multiple times for big and small screen.
